Trying to figure this guy out is challenging. He turned into a left winger fur shure. But if what he writes in his manifesto is true, The Thin Blue Line really effed him over! Maybe that’s what tipped the scales, and made him go off the deep end?

Travis, does that *Mobile Inshore Undersea Warfare Unit Jun2004 28Feb2006*, along with his TS/SCI clearance, mean what I think it does? You’re a good bit closer to the Navy SpecWar ops in that region than I am.

What do you call it when someone holds others to standards not humanly possible to reach, because I believe this was his attitude towards whites; Always ready to catch whites slipping up and it was probably not easy being around him for that reason.

On his Facebook page pictures there’s a screenshot of his degrees and certificates. He was a Naval Intelligence reserve officer, graduated in 2006.

We got a lot of Navy reservists through as augments to existing intelligence programs when I was in Iraq and Afghanistan. I was in SIGINT at the time and had a never ending stream of Naval reservists pass through. (I don’t know him, but I had to give him a good long look to be sure.)

There’s a lot of programs he could have been attached to as a reservist. DOCEX, MEDEX, CELLEX, etc, or analysis shops, fusion cells or ground operations. He referenced some different targeting methods in his full manifesto that would be ineffective against him (IMINT, OSINT, HUMINT, etc) and has a working command of officer/intel lingo.

He’s not a trigger puller. Shoots Marskman with a rifle, Expert with pistol. Uh huh. That’s fine for a weekend warrior desk jockey, but he’s no door kicker. At least, not then. He seems to be giving the LAPD a run for their money.

He was commissioned July 3, 2002, and his first assignments were: "Various Aviation Training Units 4Jul2002 15Jun2004."

Sounds like he was recycled, then ultimately washed out of flight school.

Bingo. If he spent 23 months as a naval flight student before being washed out, it is not idle to speculate that he survived a number of speedy boards [student pilot disposition boards] before the last one. If true, this is most unusual. Most all of the guys I knew who were sent off to see the Admiral were never seen again. The first speedy board was almost always terminal. This was the case at Saufley, Whiting and Kingsville. The one or two folks who survived their first speedy board were viewed as having some kind of a wire - a family connection in most cases. Again, 23 months in the program is a red flag.

I read his manifesto, and I'd estimate that the majority of it is his absolute hatred of the corruption in the LAPD. He names names of everyone that did him wrong throughout the years. And now they are going to pay. He's planned to kill these people, as many as he can take with him.

It would be interesting to hear if what he wrote was true.

The last part is all over the map ramblings and general leftist insanity.

A Mobile Inshore Undersea Warfare Unit (MIUWU) is a component of the United States Navy's Force Protection Package tasked with providing seaward security to joint logistics over-the-shore operations from either a port or harbor complex or unimproved beach sites. The mobile inshore undersea warfare unit is equipped with mobile radar, sonar, and communications equipment located within mobile elements, such as a tent, specially modified HMMWV, or truck-mountable container.

With the exception of Ventura, they were all Zeros (Officers). Ventura was Enlisted, if I recall correctly. He passed the mental exam -at least when he first started out.

As far as getting a commission in the Nav, you gotta be all kinds of roomtemp-level IQ to get booted if you are one of the Mandated Category, as I can attest to (having dealt with quite a few over the years).

Believe me, there is nothing specops about Mobile Inshore Undersea Warfare Units. They basically set up a com/radar unit on a beach head and monitor seagoing traffic and possibly look for subs using airborne assets and sonar bouys. The members are normal everyday Navy personnel. If I’m not mistaken, they are all reserve units. I don’t think any of them are active duty (although they may have active duty staff assigned).

Those were no longer issued in the Army, when I was in the Guard from '89-'96, as far as I know. Qualified "expert" with rifles on ranges a few times, but my previous instructors in hillbilly living wouldn't consider that score under those conditions to be expert at all. ;-) No big deal, for real. More so on police range pistol qualifications. Fired all kinds of other junk for the Guard. Still no expert here.

I don't see anything in the info about Dornan indicating anything in the way of ground combat training, which is about all that we did. [Que Jamaican coworker on a construction labor job once saying, "It's slavery, mon!"]

But I wasn't in the Navy. Dornan was a lieutenant. That would be mostly admin stuff by far, I would guess. Probably no soldier there, no commando. But the media chicks have to make it all sound as exciting as Dornan did in his manifesto or whatever.

I do know that I got out last enlistment as an E-6 cook, and wound up with train-the-trainer on counter-terrorism training among other interesting (and a lot of un-interesting) training.

Reservists spend a lot more time in school than active duty. AF anyway.

After tech school, I doubt I did more than 6 or 8 one week or longer classes during my first enlistment when I was active duty. I spent at least half my time training and in classes when I was reserve.
